It is a rare thing when a game ends up looking as good as the initial trailers promised, but Black Myth: Wukong _ **** _ has delivered where many games have not. The graphical fidelity and visuals of the title cannot be overstated, and the scale of its intro alone shows players the kind of work and detail that went into the title, presenting Wukong as the divinely powerful being that he is in the Journey to the West novel. It's all impressive work, but this level of graphical fidelity and scale comes at a c

In this first-person adventure, you're tasked with learning what exactly went wrong in a Yokai-infested modern Tokyo. The streets you explore are detailed, and you get more and more unique traversal and combat abilities with more explorat

Furthermore, if you manage to craft the entire Armor set, you will also gain a 4-Piece Effect, Venom Daoist Quest which grants you a small amount of Qi upon Critical Hits as well as defeats . Qi is used to initiate Spirit Skills, and so this bonus will improve your use of the special features of this Ar

"Go Into The West" is the name of the very first episode of this anime series, so it's clear they aren't exactly being subtle about using Journey to the West as their source material. The setting is the fantasy paradise of Shangri-La, which has been disturbed by a wave of negative energy, rising evil spirits, and vicious monsters. A Priest named Sanzo is ordered by the Celestial Heavens to travel to India and discover what has happened and how to fix

Both Black Myth: Wukong and the new God of War titles take a similar approach to action as well as progression, and both lean heavily into mythological lore, even if it's switched from Norse to Chinese. If you like one of these games, it's likely you'll like the other, but maybe don't play them back to back for fear of burn

Black Myth: Wukong is a massive adventure, and the time you spend journeying with The Destined One is likely not going to be over quickly. However, after finishing the action-packed adventure, there's a good chance that you'll be on the lookout for something simi

While players can always farm more Will and Blood of the Iron Bull from enemies, the ability to freely respec Cultivated Spirits — even if it only returns part of the investment — would be a valuable addition. It would encourage more experimentation with different Spirits and make this aspect of the game more dynamic and engag

Efficiency could be the issue here, with game developers doing everything to make their games look as good as possible without trying to get more out of smaller file sizes. Yes, the graphical fidelity that developers can produce will require more hard drive space , but games always tend to have bits of unused content left behind. This cut content is usually found when scouring the game files and can give many players an idea of how a title could have turned out, but they also can take up valuable storage space depending on the g

Around every corner of Black Myth: Wukong you'll be running into hordes of enemies that all need taking down and all in-between bombastic boss encounters, and if you want something just as flashy, then getting into Bayonetta is a perfect switch in p

Journey to the West is a medieval Chinese novel that dates from the 16th Century but is set in the 7th Century, and features characters and places drawn from history and ancient Chinese legend. Written by Wu Cheng'en, it's one of the most popular books in the world and has inspired countless modern adaptations in the form of movies, books, comics, and anime . The video game Black Myth: Wukong , which is currently making a big impact in the entertainment world, is yet another example of this story's continuing popular

Black Myth: Wukong 's size of 130GB (or 128.68 GB to be precise) on Steam and 104GB on PS5 may be beefy, but it is hardly uncommon now. Two massive releases from last year are comparable in size: Starfield, at an impressive 125GB on Steam, and Baldur's Gate 3 , at a hefty 150GB on Steam, but these two titles are open-world adventures that can take over one hundred hours. Black Myth: Wukong is more linear, taking anywhere from 30–35 hours to beat , showing how much extra room the incredible graphics and massive scale of visuals requ

The Golden Armor Pieces are part of the Gilded Radiance legendary set, and are some of the strongest in the game, especially for those who enjoy using Spirit skills. Boasting high defense stats, wearing half the Armor Pieces provides you with a 2-Piece Effect, which increases your Attack for a short duration, after performing a Spirit Skill, or using a Vess

With large SSD hard drives being cheaper than ever, it isn't the worst time for game file sizes to be beefier than a cow, but if every AAA game coming out is over 100GB in size, it will be difficult to have much of a library of downloaded games if players aren't into the indie scene. A 1TB SSD might not even get players ten downloaded games now, especially on a PC where file sizes tend to be larger for extra graphics settings, and that's ignoring the later updates that come with many tit
